IBM researchers gave ZDNet.com.au's sister site CNET News.com an insight its latest "racetrack" memory, which IBM promises will bring a 100 fold increase in density by storing data in long magnetised nanowires rather than disks.
IBM has figured out how much force it takes to move atoms, another tiny step in moving microchip technology forward.
Can scientists use the binary of biology, DNA, to grow carbon nanotubes into more efficient circuits? IBM thinks so.
US researchers have created a radio using carbon nanotubes so tiny it can fit on a grain of sand, showing how nanotubes could soon be used to make more efficient electronic devices.
2007 saw millions of innovations shoot from the minds of tech heads into the world of reality -- here are a few ZDNet Australia thought were pretty cool.
The only question is which approach will work best -- using molten silicon, designer molecules, or maybe protein globules?
As interest in nanotechnology peaks, scientists are claiming a significant breakthrough with the ability to make atoms move one by one.
Scientists at IBM Research have discovered a new way to get carbon nanotubes to emit light, a breakthrough that might one day lead to advances in fibre-optic technology.
Disposable satellite transmitters, inexpensive medical testing equipment and sensors for automatically tracking inventory or traffic patterns will become possible over the next 10 years through developments in nanotechnology, speakers at the Nanotech 2003 conference said Monday.
Researchers at IBM have revealed a new process for fabricating carbon nanotubes that could be incorporated into processors, a breakthrough that could lead to more powerful computers in the coming decades.
Researchers at Stanford and UC Berkeley have come up with a way to grow carbon nanotubes on silicon wafers and to test the nanotubes, which could help pave the way for carbon chips.
Motorola is conducting research in a new type of large flat-panel display which they claim has the potential of being cheaper than plasma or LCD (liquid crystal display) screens.
Research at the center is geared toward creating battlefield armor for the 21st century, such as bacteria-killing materials and expanding fabrics that could be used as tourniquets.
